Security Architectures During the ISSA San Diego Chapter Meeting
CAMBRIDGE, MASS. - September 11, 2006
Who
Steven Campbell, security architect, Mazu Networks, Inc., the leading provider of Network Behavior Analysis (NBA) systems.
What
Campbell to present “Network Behavior Analysis Systems: The New Foundation of Defense-in-Depth” during the Information Systems Security Association (ISSA) San Diego Chapter meeting. The discussion will focus on the impact of the growing internal network threat and the current shortcomings of traditional defense-in-depth security architectures. Most organizations today lack protection at the internal network layer, which places critical data and services at risk. Attendees will gain insight into how they can improve their organization’s defense-in-depth security strategy by adding protection at every point of entry, including the perimeter, endpoint and the internal network layer.
The presentation will be supported by recent research conducted by Mazu Networks and the Enterprise Strategy Group, highlighting NBA systems. Campbell will discuss how NBA systems provide companies with the network visibility needed to protect critical internal assets and achieve regulatory compliance through enhanced auditing controls.
